More quotes by Nicolas Cage
Hollywood didn't know if I was an actor or a nut or if I was this crazy character I was playing. I had developed an image of being a little bit unusual, different and wild.
Nicolas Cage
Without mentioning any names, I looked at pretty much every story that may come to your mind about a politician on the rise who was stopped short or dragged down by personal flaws and then became just a media storm. I see this as a thing that continues to happen in America and I wanted to say something about that.
Nicolas Cage
I haven't isolated myself. I am not living on a yacht somewhere. I am not tucked away or behind a gate somewhere. I am not flying on a private plane. I am going to the airport, I am with people, some of the interactions are good, some of them are not so good, but it keeps me in touch with being, you know, part of society.
Nicolas Cage
Having been a father for 19 years I realise fatherhood has changed me.
Nicolas Cage
I came out of independent film, that's my roots. I used my independent film as a laboratory, and used what I could discover in that laboratory.
Nicolas Cage
One of the great bonuses of being a film actor is that I get to go to different places, meet inspiring people and learn different things. So all those details add up.
Nicolas Cage
Sometimes people think I'm wearing a wig when I'm not wearing a wig, and then sometimes they think I'm not wearing a wig when I am wearing a wig.
Nicolas Cage
I would definitely return to Austria. They were all good experiences for me, but definitely Austria because there were some ancient Celtic, sacred sites that were in the forest that were quite beautiful.
Nicolas Cage
Those who have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action.
Nicolas Cage
I think I've become more relaxed throughout my career. I don't feel the need to jump up and down and make a big noise to get people to pay attention to me. I don't need to do punk rock gestures or eat a cockroach or do something weird to say I exist.
Nicolas Cage
The biggest problem for me was feeling that as I became more balanced and a better man that I wouldn't have the fire to create from.
Nicolas Cage
There is a misperception, if you will, in critical response or even in Hollywood, that I can only do exaggerated characters. Or what they would call over-the-top performances. Well, this is completely false.
Nicolas Cage
I have a love/ hate relationship with the city of New Orleans, which is the strongest kind of relationship.
Nicolas Cage
I'm always going to judge somebody on their work ethic, and whether or not they made me feel something, or whether or not I felt they did a good job. To me, it's important to try to block anything personal out and look at the performance, in any field.
Nicolas Cage
I came out of independent film, that's my roots.
Nicolas Cage
It's always exciting when you can go into a mode where you can be both spontaneous and choreographed. Sort of in control and out of control at the same time.
Nicolas Cage
Feel like real time unfolding. It's going to smack of reality and feel as real as it can ... The buildings themselves aren't (shown) ... The movie's about what happened amongst this handful of men when the buildings came down.
Nicolas Cage
Film has lost something in the translation to high tech. It's become so super-real. It's with digital this and stereo that, and everything's like a CD.
Nicolas Cage
My definition of a father is someone who empowers their children.
Nicolas Cage
Helen Mirren is someone that I have really admired ever since I saw her in Excalibur. That was the first thing I said to her. I loved you as Morgan Le Fay.
Nicolas Cage
